You were all so helpful sexing my EE, I thought I would reach out one more time. I have 6 unsexed heritage birds and I am quite sure I have 4 pullets and 1 cockerel. One left to go.when I look at photos of 8 week Black Australorps, their combs and wattles seem quite developed and very red. I have included one photo with my Black Copper Marans Cockerel behind to show the difference in comb colour. ( I am brand new to sexing chicks but suspected the BCM was a cockerel at 5 days due to his keeping everyone of the other 9 chicks in line.)
Sorry for the long winded post but new to unsexed heritage and having a blast!!! Thanks all.
